Signs That The Uterus Is Clean After A Miscarriage?
the doctor, ass’kum without reducing my respect, I want to ask about my wife who miscarried at the age of 16w of pregnancy. Initially, the amniotic fluid came out, continued with an intact fetus, after 2 hours, all the tissues also came out. It’s been 5 days now. Bleeding like menstruation, I want to ask on the 4th and 5th day, is it normal for lumps of flesh to come out again from the birthplace? Then the breast tightens to release milk. So is this normal, what action should I take?

Hello Andika Gilang
Thank you for your question
Indeed, at the time of a miscarriage there will be expulsion of the tissue of conception (fetus), usually in the form of blood clots or visible lumps of flesh, at a further gestational age can appear intact fetus form that comes out during a miscarriage. If the fetal tissue and placenta that are formed have not come out completely, there will be continuous bleeding from the vagina. If this happens, it is necessary to do a pregnancy ultrasound examination to assess the presence of residual tissue in your wife's uterus. Then a curettage is necessary to remove the remaining tissue. So indeed you need to check your wife for appropriate treatment. When pregnancy occurs, your wife's body will be prepared for the process of pregnancy and breastfeeding after the baby is born. Therefore, all organs of your wife's body and including your wife's breasts will experience changes, where the breasts will enlarge and the milk-producing cells will be prepared to produce breast milk because it is influenced by pregnancy hormones. This is the possibility that causes your wife's breasts to enlarge and tighten and secrete milk. Usually, it is necessary to splint the breast and give medication to stop milk production. For this drug, you should consult a gynecologist.
Hope this answer helps you.
